We provide meaningful language access to linguistically and culturally diverse parents and guardians by offering translated printed and digital materials, qualified language interpreters, and support effective communication between the district and its multilingual communities.

Why we need translation and interpretation services at PPS 

Schools must communicate information to linguistically and culturally diverse parents in a language they can understand about any program, service, or activity that is called to the attention of parents who are proficient in English. Learn more.
